Jasper and Edward get out of the car and run over to us, plucking the guys off one by one. The look in Jasper's black eyes were pure hatred and anger. Jasper held out his hand to me when most of them were knocked out on the ground, the rest ran away. I took his hand which was as cold as ice. I didn't mind, it was soothing. He took me to the car, and Edward took Bella. Edward sped off. There was arguing in the front seat from Bella and Edward, but all I could think about was Jasper.

"Are you okay?" He asks in a soft voice that could make me melt like butter on a warm biscuit.

"Yeah." I say as I nod my head. Edward drops us off at the diner and takes Bella home. We were seated in minutes.

"How did you know where I was?" I ask him.

"Edward found me in my car out front. He needed help looking for Bella." He replies.

"Thank you." I say shyly while looking down at my lap. I feel a finger tap on my chin to make me look up.

"Any time, darlin'." He clears his throat a bit and looks at me, except, this time his eyes aren't black. They're a golden brown. Curiously I stare into his eyes. "You see," he starts talking again breaking me out of my trance "I feel very protective over you."

"Over me? Why?" I ask.

"You're different from the others. Too nice to see hurt." He responds. I take a deep breath and try to collect my feelings. I felt butterflies in my stomach. I reached over to my back pack and pulled out my note book.

"So yesterday, we went over the final battle of the civil war." I start. I continue on with reading my notes to him. He watched me intently with his head resting on his hand, occasionally smirking when we would make eye contact.

"May I tell you something, Jane?" He asks. I nod in response. "It's very hard not to kiss you right now." I felt my face turn bright red.

"I imagine it must be even more difficult since you have a girlfriend." I reply sternly.

"Girlfriend? Alice? Everyone thinks that we're a couple, but in all reality she's just my very best friend, and I look at her as a sister." He says. I became embarrassed. Suddenly his cool hand touched my forearm and calmness swept over me.

"It's eight thirty, my dad is probably wondering where I am, uhm I'm sorry I have to leave." I say as I put my books in my bag and stand up. I look at him. "Oh, I actually rode with Bella… Do you mind giving me a ride home?" I ask.

"Not at all, ma'am." He says standing up taking my bag. When we arrived at his car he of course proved himself a gentleman and opened my door for me. I took my bag and sat in the car, buckling my seatbelt.

We pulled into my gravel driveway, he got out and opened my door before I could unbuckle my seat belt. I stood up and made eye contact with him, smiling like a dork. I heard the front door open, it was my brother.

"Jane, it's about time you came home. Dad's been worried." He said sternly.

"One second." I told Brandon. I looked back to Jasper. "It's difficult for me not to kiss you right now." I say smirking.

"Then why don't you?" He asked chuckling. I glanced back over to my brother on the porch with his arms crossed, glaring at me.

"Bran would kill both of us." I whisper. I walk away slowly, as I reach the porch steps I turn around and wave goodbye to Jasper who was already in his car. He gave me a wink and drove away.

I get inside and take my shoes off, still smiling and thinking about tonight's events. "Where were you?" Brandon asks me.

"I went dress shopping in Port Angeles, then I was studying with a friend." I reply.

"He looked like more than a friend to me, Jane." Just then my father walks out of the kitchen to greet me.

"There she is. Where were you?" My father asks.

"With a boy." Brandon responds.

"Brandon stop, I was with a few friends. We went dress shopping then we were studying." I say. My father rubs the top of his head and sighs.

"Well, better go get some sleep." He says pointing to the stairs. I give him a quick kiss on the cheek and glared at Brandon as I walked up to my room.

Buzz Buzz. My phone vibrates in my pocket. I put my phone on my side table and fish out pajamas from my dresser. I change my clothes and lay down in my bed. Buzz Buzz. My phone vibrates again. I grab it and notice a text from Bella, and a text from Jasper.

"Didja get lucky on your date? ;)" Bella asks. I respond "No, did you? Lol."

Jasper texted me too. "Next time I'm going to get that kiss, whether your brother is around or not." I smile widely.

"I told you Bran would kill both of us if he saw you kiss me." I hit send and waited for a response.

"I'd make sure no one would lay a finger on you while I'm around." I giggled a bit to myself.

"Goodnight, Mr. Hale." I respond.

"Goodnight, darlin'."
